They do share infrastructure, the actual infrastructure needed to setup a charging station in the Rockies isn't in the signage and some fairly basic electronic components, it's in how you get the electricity to the Rockies. That will be shared by all car companies and isn't something the car companies themselves manage.

That said, I think that in many cases they should share space. For example on a crowded downtown street, there should be standardized charging stations that can accommodate multiple types of cars. It would be annoying to have one parking spot for Tesla, another for GM, another for Ford. But that's not a question of waste or resourcefulness and I don't think that needs a government to step in to regulate either.

Tesla's, along with pretty much all electric cars, support standardized charging as a matter of convenience to the user.
Okay this is bad. I had just convinced management to get us on Bronze Plan, now it's gone. Intially the whole team ~10 Dev's were in Bitbucket, was considering between GitHub and GitLab since Gitlab allowed importing pull request issues, whereas GitHub support just asked me to write my own plugin for the same.
I find that much of the newly inspired criticism on science after the appearance of the replication crisis did not go to alternative source of truth but started to admit that there is much that men don't know and won't know.

The problem is man's arrogance that it knows, that it can find a solution to every quæstion it asks.

“science” is also not even close to “not infallible” it is a complete coinflip whether any peer-reviewed result is even worth the paper it's printed on.

Dare I say it's under that, because it's a coinflip whether the data are even reproducible, but the conclusions derived from the data, even if they be reproducible, are almost invariably involving bigger leaps of faith than making data up.
New “Fast Forward” Algorithm Could Unleash the Power of Quantum Computers
Yeah, I guess I didn't do the math on that.

Even the ability to correct single bit flips would be useful though. I can also imagine much faster ways to do it... for instance, since the tops of the images are fine, the problem is likely in the 8x8 block where the corruption began (and the user could point to this).
My favorite example of this was when I worked on a B2B product with a daily email report. We noticed the most common usage of this email report came from native iOS email clients first thing in the morning.

As a test, my team all went home and practiced being the user. We had a test email sent to our email addresses we would open first thing in the morning and attempt to make sense of it while laying in bed.

The result was a lot less cruft, bigger text, and key takeaways above the fold.
Taxation is handled by the member states, not EU. This means that many states act as the lowest bidder (e.g Ireland) to attract foreign companies.
> And I'm sorry, the moment you use "socialism" to describe the government backing private loans from institutions that are privately held you lost me

No, I am sorry. When government forces financial institutions to give loans to everyone applying without risk analysis it IS socialism, aka “democratic control over the enterprise”. No capitalist in their right mind would give hundreds of thousands of dollars to pay for underwater basket weaving degrees and expect to see the money back.

Are there any recent (this century) examples of _successful_ criminal libel actions in the US? I would've thought it'd be fairly clearly unconstitutional.
How do you propose to detect if A, B, C and D are a cabal that push their own papers or if they are the people who actually know the subject and want to improve the quality of paper that new people produce?
Everyone knows that at some point non Tesla charging stations will catch up.

But I'm still surprised it has not happened yet.

Volkswagen is starting to sell lots of long distance capable EV like id.3 and id.4 (at least in Europe) with absolutely zero visible/working plan to provide their customer reliable fast charging everywhere they need (directly or via a partner network).

And Renault still hasn't made a car with more than 50 kW charging (and even that is a paying option...). Well at least their customer don't need long distance fast charging network ...
>> The zeitgeist of American business over the past 40 or so years has been that brand is what people buy.

Yeah, that sounds like more of the Koolaid the business schools were selling.

Remember all the TV brands that were made in the US? Now they are bought and sold in China. Not the products, but the brand names.
Mapbox launches mobile SDKs with 3D
Yea I understand what you are saying. I think it's hard in our current environment to understand trade offs because there isn't a lot of truth or trust in journalism or corporate propaganda. It's impossible to make a value determination of this action because we don't have the truth.

I don't think people should just assume it's a positive impact without all of the facts. It could very well be a negative. You seem to be only focused on one dimension of this, forest conservation.
> I don't know why we always go back to income inequality

Because it's pretty well established that outside of the most abject poverty, relative deprivation is a more significant factor driving experienced disutility than absolute material condition, contrary to the naive assumptions many people make that increasing individual absolute material condition increases individual utility independent of external context.

There are, of course, people who don't believe it works that way, people who don't want it to work that way, and people who don't want other people to believe it works that way because such belief threatens their own advantaged position.
Institutional investor has become the term to refer to the opposite of retail investors.

I don't see that changing.
I’m wondering how many folks are aware that a similar case of research misconduct is actually affecting the covid origin investigation?

Essentially a lot of scientists in 2020/2021 cite the same two research papers on impounded pangolins to support that covid-19’s virus, SARS-CoV-2, had a close cousin(s) infecting pangolins.

However, this analysis from an MIT Broad Institute genomics researcher, Alina Chan PhD, implicates research misconduct on the part of those two articles’ authors.

https://twitter.com/ayjchan/status/1320344055230963712?s=21

Turns out the authors of the pangolin papers can’t provide the complete pangolin-infecting coronavirus sample genome (i.e. they can’t provide ‘the source code’ if you will), and they profess not having coordinated with each other or even knowing each other even though authors from both papers published a paper (notably also a pangolin cov genome oriented) together just a couple months before the outbreak came out.

Mainstream virologists like Angela Rasmussen PhD now call the pangolin cov genomes ‘a mess’,

https://twitter.com/angie_rasmussen/status/13498414893842841...

and yet these papers continue to get cited to help prop up the natural origin line.

U.S. Right to Know published the email traffic between the Nature Medicine & PLOS Pathogens editors and the two sets of authors of the research papers in question:

https://twitter.com/ayjchan/status/1354455267656785925?s=21

. . . and after all that those authors still come up short. In other words, there’s ‘weirdness’ around the provenance of those pangolin cov datasets, and the lack of formal retractions from Nature and PLOS Pathogens (despite those journals’ editors’ posted Q&A with the authors) means that the natural origin line continues to gain unearned steam (beyond being reasonably treated as simply the pandemic origin’s null hypothesis).
Are there any automated ways to assess a web product against the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG)? This should really be part of the CI/CD process.
I hundred percent agree with this report as social is basically a modern day drug. It has played so well with our brain mechanism and made us addicted to it.

If you want to leave social especially as a teenager you have you try really hard as you fall into something called fomo(fearing of missing out)
Agreed. The timing is also rather suspect. I am not sure why they wouldn't have announced it last night if they closed out yesterday. Instead, they waited until this morning after a ~100% jump in price. I find it hard to believe that news organizations haven't been reaching out to them pretty consistently over the last few days since they appear to be the explicit target of the WSB crowd.
It was used before 1918 - it was first standardized in the Civil Script (1710). But it wasn't considered a separate letter until 1918 - so e.g. the standard alphabetic sorting ignored the distinction. For this reason, it wasn't always used consistently, although it was still much more consistent than Ё. And even today, "иод" is still considered valid spelling; indeed, it's the preferred one in scientific context.

This still shows up in some contexts - e.g. Й, like Ё, isn't used in bullet lists; try it in Word - it'll go from И straight to К.
Excellent points.

But why then do the soldiers on the ground demand the A-10? They are in the field fighting and sometimes dying so from better food to fast Med-Evac what the soldier wants he/she gets to sustain their morale.

What is missing from the stand-off platforms or fast movers that the A-10 has and gains it loyal supporters? Is it that the soldier sees the pilot get into the conflict with them?

What was it like to fly the Viggen? Any posts on that aircraft you can recommend?
Much needed indeed. I can imagine quite a demand for this.

But how do you plan to tackle supply in meaningful way ? A practitioner sitting at a clinic can draw lot of samples vs the one travelling to homes.
I previously would have dismissed this sort of comment with the thought "surely they are missing something." But recently we were looking for simple cabinets and found some we liked on Wayfair but just seemed expensive to me. On a whim I checked Target and found the exact same thing - same model number, even the same marketing pictures for about 33% less. The only difference, as you say, was the snobbery in the description.
No other stock is currently shorted at > 100% of outstanding shares, so it will not repeat in the same way.

Perhaps after this, it will not repeat for a very long time, since one might hope hedge funds would be more careful about shorting more shares than exist!

Social pressure in the form of "corporation xyz only supports ie6 for their bank website" is another way.
Because democracy is about society and not free will (it's about deciding what's better for majority) and yes, I do belive that limiting him that choice(not really him but his employer) is beneficial for society. It similar case to giving free access to alcohol, hard drugs, junk food etc. Someone has to pay this cost of nonoptimal choices.

EDIT: example: you don't provide living wage so some/more ppl will chose to steal. This might destroy their family, so social worker is needed, you also need more police, judges, prisons etc. All of them are employed, happily contributing to GDP. Success! Is it better world? I don't think so. It's much cheaper if with offering living wage. (as global optimisation, company owners and individuals do local optimisations)
I agree. It’s no different with other speculative “assets”.
Is it worth getting a CS degree in 2021?
I'm excited to see a goodnewsnetwork.org article make it to the top of hacker news. This site has become a favorite of mine.
I see. Milgram's answer is: for the "teacher," there is no need to overpower the researcher (Milgram called him the "experimenter") in order to end the experiment. The teacher can just walk away. (And then, if he sees fit, he can call the police or otherwise report the experimenter.)

Milgram was at pains to construct a situation in which there wasn't even an implied threat from the experimenter. When teachers protest that they don't want to continue, the harshest thing that the experimenter says is "You have no choice; you must go on." Milgram wanted to see how obedient people might be when there wasn't even an implied threat of force. (And he found that 65% of subjects were willing to deliver the maximum shock under these conditions.)
How to Build Rapid Prototypes to Test Your App Ideas

Cool, and we'll have Tesla chargers, and Ford chargers, and GM chargers, and VW chargers, and...

Or, Tesla could adopt the industry standard so I don't have to tear out the charger on the wall every time I want to buy a different brand of car.

Its quite a joke that having vendor lock-in increases competition and innovation. If you've paid the thousands of dollars to have a Tesla wall charger installed, and you'll have to pay to get a different one for a different brand, do you think that'll weigh on your decision to buy another car even if the other car is technically better? Proprietary connectors lock people into the platform and increases friction to customers leaving for a different product.
You need much more than a 20mm difference to make social-distancing people look like they're basically hugging, which is what the article is about. Either way, none of this matters anyways because the whole point of the article is the compression effect, not where it comes from and in their case, it came from a telephoto lens, not a cropped wide-angle, so the terminology is entirely fine.
Better to have lived short and suffered than not to have been born at all?

If it helps with our environmental catastrophe I’m alright with many fewer cows being born, particularly since the lives we bring them into is so full of suffering.
You can't effectively do that since the spot price per kilowatt-hour changes drastically from every minute. The per minute pricing reflects that, so you don't have to worry about fluctuating prices. It also add a "tax" for "hogging" the chargers, as the rate of which you're able to charge drops significantly after some time.

You're probably being gauged compared to the true cost per kilowatt-hour, but that just mean there's room for more competition.
Just checked out the wiki myself. That reads like fanfiction.
I don't see API access as being necessary for a small-scale trolling operation, and large scale operations have enough resources to work around the lack of API by scraping.

I'm not saying that API access is completely useless, I was raising the question of whether the potential (and relatively small) benefit to trolling outweighs the major upsides of API access being available for all.
Really interesting article.
I’m just curious to know how do you get access to gpt-3
Speed of acceptance may indeed be related to the type of claim, but I think it’s also highly related to the ability to confirm the evidence yourself.

There are many ways to confirm major pieces of evidence for, say, the earth being round. It’s easy enough to do, even without getting into a rocket and seeing the earth’s curvature.

There are many fewer ways to confirm a whole lot of other ideas, though, whether there’s scientific rigor behind the idea’s evidence or not.

For example, I can’t easily confirm the Higgs Boson evidence. But it also doesn’t directly impact my life much, so it’s ok for me to be a little unsure about it and not have first hand evidence.

There are other topics that impact me much more directly than Higgs Boson, and thankfully those things are typically much easier for me to get evidence for. So I think the truth does indeed eventually come to fruition... but when we have vested moneyed interests pushing against the truth? Yikes, that makes things much more difficult.
They were. Among other things, Commodore Business Machines made file cabinets, and did the early PET cases in the same shop.
I've heard of such a thing but never seen it. I was a satellite installer and drilled into a lot of walls. I'd just drill thru the drywall then feel around with a drill bit.

MOOCs are for introducing a new topic; they can't make you an expert in anything.

I like the occasional (as in, literally once a year) MOOC to see something completely outside my specific profession. But the only way to get good within my profession is hands-on activity.

It's similar to reading HN, or even ACM/IEEE articles. All of that stuff is for seeing new material, not for getting better at my bread and butter.
Your post couldn't have illustrated my point better. Your (and most tech company's) idea of potential is acing a coding test or building something very successful. Revature's idea of potential is anyone off the street that shows technical aptitude.
Possibly. But the chat bots are not purchasing call options that actually have an impact on the stock price.
>They have no idea how many people are willing to loose $100 just to stick it to them.

...or maybe $600 stimulus checks? Plus a bunch of gambling addicts who have been missing out on sports betting because of corona? Is there anyway to know how many shares are in the hands retail investors vs. institutions?
> Liberals are not considered the "far left" and people on the far left dislike them as much as people on the right do.

Indeed. Graffiti in the wake of a recent riot read: "Liberals get the bullet too "
Yes. There have been dozens of replication efforts -- none of them exact replications. The closest and most careful one that I know about is the one done by Jerry Burger at Santa Clara University: "Replicating Milgram: Would People Still Obey Today?" It's at https://www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/amp-64-1-1.pdf.
Seattle prices have dropped with the pandemic. Even pre-covid I was paying roughly 2k for a studio with parking. Now that same apartment would be 200-300 a month cheaper.
Even my least tech savvy friends understand that their wifi password is like a traditional front door key: anyone with a copy can unlock the door. I'd call that very unsurprising to most people.

The idea that more sophisticated authentication is possible to prevent password sharing would be a surprise to most laypeople I know.

Also home internet is increasingly coming with smart routers that will alert you to new devices on the network. Tech savvy people are the only ones who BYOD.
BP was owned by the British government up until 1987. Maybe it’s their rigs from back in the day?

Private companies are usually required to have insurance to cover decommissioning their assets in the event of bankruptcy. I’d be very surprised if Britain wasn’t directly involved in the operation of these.
> We want to evaluate firms with a critical eye. If they are mis-valued, that serves no one.

Hard disagree here. Sometimes mis-valuing firms serves a LOT of people. There are many firms who could create value if only they had more capital to work with. As an example, it's very possible that a company hard hit by COVID could recover if they got fresh capital and used it to explore new business models that are quarantine-friendly. I'm all for kicking out non-believers from being involved in their equities in any way.

You can't short sell most early stage startups. If you don't believe in them you just don't invest in them. It's that simple.

As for companies who do bad things, like laundering money or misusing funds, we don't need to short their stock, we need to take them to court and get them punished.

You know which firms are really mis-valued? Hedge funds. They sit in armchairs in high rises on Wall Street and do nothing for me.
The irony is that Hacker News, a prolific social media site, is publishing fake news about mental health in social media and making its users angrier.

I think that definition is susceptible to defining the "necessities for living" in ways that underestimate poverty. How do you define what's the standard of living? As of 2021 I'd imagine that several necessities for interacting with society such as internet access and potentially even mobile access would not be universally viewed as required to be above the poverty line. Similarly while home ownership is probably not required to be above poverty line, is stable access to housing required? What about having sufficient savings to survive/social support to survive the loss of a paycheck without missing rent?
It sounds like it, but it’s not the industry that pays directly, but the government.

That said the question is are the habitats created, on balance, better than any of the drawbacks of leaving the systems in place?

What happens when the structures partially collapse or completely collapse? Do they create dangers either to well heads, vessels, ecosystems ?
Tell your 5 year old you're going to give him 10 cookies, but he has a choice. Either he can have the 10 cookies right now, or he can pick up his room, and then he has the option of getting 10 cookies from you any time of the day or night during the next month, whenever he wants, no questions asked, no matter how busy daddy is. Or he can sell the option to any one of his friends or family, to guarantee they get 10 cookies in exchange for those pokemon cards he's had his eye on.

That's an options contract.
One thing I like about Nio is they are using swappable batteries[1] that can be swapped out in about 3-5 minutes, which is comparable, or likely faster, than filling (from empty) at a gas station depending on tank size. It also leaves Nio in charge of keeping the batteries up to date so your car won't lose value over time like a 10 year old car with degraded batteries that won't hold as much of a charge and take longer and longer to charge over time as the battery degrades and cost a heck of a lot to swap out. It costs about $16k[2] to get a Model 3 battery replaced. Nio is able to sell cars for about $10k cheaper by using swappable batteries. Batteries as a Service.

For me the problem really is this: I want or need to do X, and to do that I need to know Y, which is a subset of knowledge domain Z, and I only really have time to learn Y. Sometimes I can get away with learning only Y, but most of the time not spending all that time learning Z means I've only thought I've learned Y, and as soon as something doesn't work as expected, I'm stuck.

What I miss is what I (almost) had in college: the chance to learn in depth not tied to a particular instrumental outcome.
My experience has been different.

Electric Highway (Ecotricity) has a high rate of broken chargers. When you find one, they seem to charge a minimum fee of £12 regardless of how much you use.

Most chargers are slow. Either 7kw or 11kw is common; 20kw is considered rapid in some places.

The fragmentation of networks means you need at least four crap apps just to get around and then you’ll probably need to install a new app if you’re going somewhere new.

What you call convenient locations are a mixed blessing. Spaces for chargers are often ICEd in my experience because they’re in busy car parks.

I just want to pull up, plug in, and tap my credit card. The charge networks seem to go out of their way to make using the service painful.
